About Us

About Our Art

Diana Saffo Bono is an award winning regional artist, the daughter of a Sicilian immigrant father and first generation Sicilian mother. She grew up on the Hill in St. Louis, an area rich in old world culture. Everyday life revolved around family, wonderful food, and religious devotion. Italians love life and have a passion for living. Diana’s passion is her art. A self taught artist, she works in oils, acrylics, watercolors, pastels, charcoal and pen and ink. The medium she uses is often determined by her subject matter and her intent for that particular piece. An impressionism, sometimes expressionism painter, and excellent colorist, she is best known for her dramatic brush work. Diana is on a never ending journey, always searching for ways to develop her abilities and grow as an artist. She is delighted when the viewer smiles or laughs at something discovered or is transported to another place or time. Diana’s work is a celebration of life.

To view more of Diana’s work, visit Framations Gallery at 218 S. Main in St. Charles, MO where she is a resident artist.
